The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the largest veterans service organization in the nation, committed to advocating for the unique needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a focus on destigmatizing mental health support and preventing veteran suicide, the organization offers a range of services, youth programs, and community initiatives designed to empower individuals and strengthen local communities.

Over its century-long history, the American Legion has secured record amounts in VA disability benefits and provided significant grants to support youth initiatives. Through advocacy, training, and programs like American Legion Baseball and Boys Nation, the organization fosters leadership, sportsmanship, and personal development for younger generations while championing the needs of veterans across the country.
